Which Part of Oahu is Best to see the Whales From?

During whale season on Oahu is it better to go out on the North Shore to see the whales or somewhere near Waikiki?

Answer

In addition to being much closer to where you are probably staying, Waikiki is probably a better choice. For sure whales will be along the North Shore as well but they won't be any more plenty-full and you can avoid the drive. Also, the North Shore in the winter time is often plagued with huge surf which will not make for the most ideal whale watching conditions.
